PAUL GREGORY WOMBLE

I was truly shocked when I got my Kansas Alumni magazine at Paul's passing. He was one of the best all-around athletes I ever met. Paul help me through baseball tryouts our freshman year at KU. He was truly ambidextrous when we would play football or basketball. I lost track of him after we graduated when he was drafted in to professional baseball by the Mets. Paul was a great guy and a great friend.

,My deepest condolences and sympathy to Mrs. Carol Womble and Family members as I just learned of Paul's passing. We were good friends from 7th grade through days after college. I last saw Paul as he visited me in January 1993 after attending Corps of Engineer training in Huntsville, AL. He was not only a good friend, a scholar, a tremendous athlete, and one of the best baseball player to come out of KCK. I regret that we lost contact in the last years.

Paul and I attended...

Just heard about Paul's passing. I knew Paul from high school. Outstanding athlete and great person. Very shy and humble. The day I was inducted into the Army, I saw an article in Sporting News magazine titled "Womble sure fire superstar". He was being touted as the next NY Mets third baseman. I looked for his name in the Mets box scores over the next three years and never saw it, so when I got out of the service and back to KC, my wife and I had Paul over for dinner. Paul told me that...

To the Family of Paul Womble:

I was so saddened to hear today of the loss of Paul. I went to Central Junior High and Wyandotte High School and graduated with him in 1967. Paul was always so kind to me and he was a good friend I could count on. Please accept my most heartfelt sympathies for your lossmy thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

I Grew up in same neighborhood near central junior park and junior high school in kansas city, kansas.Probably the best baseball player ii have ever seen. Sorry for your loss. Rick egnatic
